Subject: passing command line args to the kernel

Hi,
Please tell me how does the Universal bootloader(UBoot) will pass the
command line arguments to the Kernel? How Kernel accesses it ? If
possible, with an example, please explain.

Thanx n regards
--Pramod

Depends on the architecture. See for example Documentation/arm/Booting
how it's done on ARM.
